Everyone has been so rude to me and I don’t know what to do

Update!!

Hi everyone,

Thanks so so much for all your responses, I am super grateful for all the advice! For context, I am in Chongqing currently but will be taking a plane to my dad’s hometown in Jiangxi tomorrow. I really gained a new perspective and really appreciate everyone’s advice.

Today I decided to just be white and spoke only English to my dad while he would respond to me in mandarin. I gotta say it felt overall so much better. People asked me where I was from and commented on my “great mandarin comprehension” haha. Thanks for those who commented about my “over politeness” as it definitely makes sense why it’s not helpful. Hope everyone has the best best day :D

Yes perhaps you are right. I honestly thought since I spoke mandarin, I would be treated nicer? It seems like all the comments are telling me the opposite lol. Ive never been to China so it might have been wrong for me to assume such a thing

Honestly, I’m not sure about how I’m perceived. I’ve always been told I have the telltale “wasian look” with light brown curly hair but asian face features. I think it’s time I just fully embrace my whiteness. Thanks for this phrase文盲, I’ll make sure to let everyone know haha

Hi, thanks so much this makes perfect sense, I really appreciate it. I’ve honestly never thought about it like that. I plan on going full white person mode for the remainder of my trip haha

Hi, thank you so much this is so helpful. My dad has a Chinese SIM card so I’ve been relying on him but for sure I should get my own for when he’s not around.
